NCGA Senior Four Ball QualifierJune 3, 2017 at Moffett Field

Back in April, we held the regular four ball qualifier at Moffett Field where
the weather was a mixed bag with
some steady rain, a couple of intense squalls and sunshine during the round.
For the senior version of the qualifier (those over 55), we returned to Moffett
and encountered some great weather. The competition consisted of
two tournaments - one to determine the two teams that will go on in
the NCGA competition and one to determine who won the prize money and the
coveted TOC points.

In the qualifier, the team of
Rick Wheat and Ken Arends combined for a great
11-under 61 to take the top spot. John Driver and
Anthony Tuiono joined forces to captured the second qualifying spot
with a solid
64. Those two teams will move on to a regional qualifier on August 2 at
one of the local courses. Qualifiers from that second stage will advance
to the NCGA finals on September 7 and 8 at Poppy Hills.

It's no surprise that the above teams also took the top spots in the regular
tournament that's open to all members of the club regardless of age. Other
prize winners included the teams of Ross Erickson and
Roger Kalemba (65),
Ray Coler and Buzz Ogren (66) and Jim Breedlove and
John Frykland (also 66).
Since some of the prizes consisted of gift cards at the Moffett pro shop, a card
playoff was required to determine who walked away with the loot.

Congratulations to all and good luck to the qualifiers in the next round of competition.
